AGE UK in Bromsgrove is OPEN
Age UK Herefordshire and Worcestershire have announced they are closing on 30 September 2024 Age UK Herefordshire & Worcestershire Announces Closure Due to Financial Challenges.
Whilst this is a huge loss to the county, please be aware Age UK Bromsgrove, Redditch and Wyre Forest is NOT closing and remains very much open. It is an independent charity operating as a brand partner of Age UK National. Age UK BRWF (along with Age UK Worcester, Malvern Hills and Hereford Localities) continue to offer a range of free and paid for services that are very similar or the same as Age UK Herefordshire and Worcestershire, but demand is currently extremely high, so wait time for support may be increased in the short term.
With regards to countywide contracts, specifically Home from Hospital Service and Dementia Support Service, which Age UK H&W have been delivering across Worcestershire, we understand that arrangements are being put in place as quickly as possible by the different commissioners to ensure these services continue until the end of the current contracts (end of March 2025).
